Bones Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 remind me to sign up an account with Antarctica as my country, claim air cooling on all my submissions. Eh - I believe we'll have a new category called "Glacier cooling" if he does this..... No way I'd believe it's all on air with all that ice around. BTW do let us know how long one of those will last for a benching session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiLLius Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 As Mr.Scott said previously, this discussion pops up every X amount of time. It's the same, every time. Why do you want to change said rules? Those guys that are elite have pumped in thousands of hours and money to get where they are. If you think it's unfair, step up your game, buy a container, get some LN2 and start benching subzero dude Global points are there for a reason, and yes, you need exotic cooling to score world records/global firstplaces. You can't compete with a Fiat Panda in Formula One no? Fair? You compete with the guys in YOUR cooling category, some OC-esports even hve separate brackets for subzero and ambient. Even in some competitions Elites are prohibited to even compete or ES are not allowed. So they often times draw from the same silicon lottery as the rest of the overclockers. The only thing that I would like to see changed is the "apprentice" tag, which sounds a bit, I don't know, not fitting for its cooling category. But that's about it imho.

Mr.Scott Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 4 hours ago, Allua said: There are three basic cooling methods: forced air, conduction, and convection. So, using your thinking, any heatpipe air cooler would be considered convection cooling. That blows your grouping right out of the water. No pun intended. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosarianilives Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Lmao forced air is also convection. If we wanna go full science here you forgot evaporation which is how ln2 works. I wonder when we get 100% radiation based cooler ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spit051261 Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) How about just 2 groups , elite and everyone else ? There will be no arguments about cooling then. Up to everyone what they want to use . Edited October 6, 2022 by spit051261 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
